    France had a national strike this week. Germany is slipping into recession.

    Even more reason to celebrate our booming economy and ever-growing living standards.

    This is the Sunak proposal, isn't it? But with a cap, because we can't take refugees from the whole world, other countries outside Europe need to contribute.

    I'm not entirely sure what the Sunak proposal is, I'm not sure he does either. Surely it would make sense to have these processing centres in most safe European countries then it's easier to weasel out the illegals.

    In case you hadn't noticed, the whole world is struggling to recover after the Pandemic. You need to extend your sight beyond Watford.

    That is the Sunak proposal. And anyone coming in illegally will be removed, and won't have a right to come back.

    Ah right. Which countries are they setting these centres up in?

    I believe asylum seekers will apply to the British Embassy in the country they are in. Their application then gets processed

    I’m not certain it was the Yanks now though mate….more a pro-Kiev, anti Russian faction (of course not helped or known about by us in the West ;) ).
    Same as the pro-Kiev, anti Russian faction who went over the border and attacked targets in Russia….not led by a Neo-Nazi ‘cos they don’t exist in Ukraine apparently.

    If that’s the far-right Neo Nazi Russian Volunteer Corp that we are talking about then probably yes.
    Nazis, Nazis everywhere ……..

    So the actions of a Russian guy taking some photos in Russia means Ukraine is full of Nazis?

    I’m not saying it’s terrible. Just in the context of recent stagnation/decline it’s not exactly the brilliant news right wing bobbleheads will have you believe.

    I agree, however the pure fact that the doom and gloom forecasters were in fact wrong yet again (and of course that can work both ways), shouldn’t be lost

    Are we still the worst recovering in the G7? Probably wasn’t a great time for self-imposed economic sanctions.

    I never said that. Guess making stuff up is easier than proving me wrong though.
